Dominions II In-Game Typos

[PvK]

I think the between-turns tip about Soulless and how they are equipped based on their living form, has a typo where the word "were" should be "where". I only had a few seconds to look at it though, so maybe I was reading it wrong.

Also, the tip about visiting the illwinter web site to look for patches should read "to see if there are any" rather than "to see if there is any".

Umm, you sure you don't have that backwards? From your quote, doesn't reads correctly..

"One of the few blood magic spells that do not require"

vs

"One of the fhew blood magic spells that does not require"

Second is correct.

"Spells that do not require" is a complete phrase, I believe, and that's why I think it shouldn't be "doesn't". The "do not require" part describes the group that this particular spell is part of, not the spell itself.

I guess that we should ask someone like georgevtucker to be sure.

It should be "One of the few Blood magic spells that does not require . . ."

A singular subject ("one") requires a singular verb ("does").

Unless you view it as a part of the group, and you're describing the group with the subsequent phrase, then it would require a plural verb. It depends on what "that" refers to. I think it refers to describing the spell group, and that it's not a part of the predicate, but rather a descriptive attribute of the noun "spells", as there is another part of the sentence following that phrase.
Doesn't really matter, of course.

there is no range indicated in the spell description of quickening.

[HJ]

In race description of Tien Chi under Dominion it says "Conscription (defense increseases in provinces with order)" - should be "increases".

In case this hasn't been pointed out, there's a magic site called 'wispering woods' - should be 'whispering woods'

[st.patrik]

Apologies if this has been pointed out already.

I saw a magic site called 'Volcanoe'. Should read 'Volcano' methinks.
